RAPAPORT... South Africa-based diamond miner Trans Hex expects that its
net loss widened 81% to $14.2 million (ZAR 182.6 million) in the past fiscal
year due to impairment charges and a slump in sales, the company warned
Thursday.
Revenue from its South African operations fell 19.5% to
$42.2 million (ZAR 540.2 million) during the 12 months that ended March 31, the
miner said in a trading statement. Impairment charges — the cost of assets
being devalued — related to its mines in the Lower Orange River region of South
Africa amounted to $2.1 million (ZAR 27.4 million).
The company will release its full results on or around
Thursday this week, it said.
